Going to check out Sufjan Stevens at Metro tonight. I think it'll be special considering the title of his latest release. Completely makes up for not going to Bloc Party on Wednesday.
So yesterday, on the day playoff tickets for the Sox went on sale, the Sox dropped the series to the Royals, cutting the lead in the division over the Indians to 4.5. The thumping sound you hear is people jumping off the bandwagon. From tall buildings. I don't really care that they can't hit; we really haven't all season (the Rowand hitting in front of Dye issue still irks me). What's more troubling is that the pitching and fielding have gone south. Conteras has been the best starter for the past month, winning 6 of his last 7 starts, and a sub 2.50 ERA since Aug 1. Buehrle 's ERA has been on the rise since late July, Garland's been .500 (9-9), although aside from a bad August, he's been ok. Garcia's been hittable the last 3 months.
It'll be fun to watch the game on Monday.
I feel a lot better, at least physically. Working out has helped a lot.
